Reports Report 1891ae (Event 1891-2017)

| Name | Troy H |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Bright orange fireball with red-orange tail that briefly turned green before I lost site. As I was observing the full moon looking to the southeast it appeared and moved west to east in a short arc. It seemed to be moving more northeast than east. It appeared just a little above a large tree that was about 70 or 80 feet away and 50 or 60 feet tall. Not sure if it stopped burning, or just went out of site. It was trailed by a short tail that disappeared along with the fireball. There was no bright flash, and I went indoors within 1 minute, and did not hear any boom. |
